Research
Domains
The School is organised into domains that pursue disciplinary excellence and provide core disciplinary teaching. The domains are encouraged to expand beyond their traditional contexts and incorporate relevant knowledge and skills of related disciplines.
Aside from being the School’s foundation for disciplinary excellence, domains are channels for communication and mentoring, and offer clear pathways for career development. Each faculty member belongs to one domain. Research assistants, research associates, research fellows and graduate research students belong to the domains of their supervisors / Principal Investigators.
Research Programmes
The School’s Research Programmes are strategic in driving our translational and cross-disciplinary vision across both research and service areas. These ground-up initiatives receive seed funding from the School for 3–5 years in order to sustain their operations. Programme membership is not strictly restricted to faculty within SSHSPH; rather, participation is highly encouraged from other faculties, schools and institutions to promote cross-disciplinary and collaborative work.
